Joe Rogan Podcast, check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day.
Hello, Joe.
Joe, that was fun last night.
Let me just stop by saying what a fun time at the club, the green room and
everything
else.
And here's what I was talking to you, head of security at the club.
Here's what I love about the club.
I worked at the club.
I had a great weekend a couple of months ago, is they keep the audience in line.
Nobody's heckling without getting booted.
Is that not the most important thing in comedy that nobody talks about?
It's very important.
It's unbelievable.
And unfortunately, there's so many crowd work clips that get put out on
Instagram.
Right.
People are now thinking that they want to be a part of the show.
And so I see people much more often chiming in and yelling things out and they
think
they're going to be a part of things.
Yeah.
And even when you go, when you try to be nice on the first line, you go, that
was okay,
sir.
Then they try again.
You're like, listen, you pee.
Oh my God.
But that's what I love about your club.
Everybody there just has the energy.
Like, we're going to tell you right now, another word, you're out.
That's how it should be.
Yeah.
Because as you know, there's no, nobody heckles once.
Right.
Nobody's ever heckled once.
Nobody heckles sober either.
And nobody heckles sober.
And they just like to start trouble.
And the green one was fun.
And even though I didn't go on, it was, I also didn't go on because you have to
understand
the language where I was like, you're like, you want to go on?
And they go, I don't really want to go on.
You go, that's cool.
But really, then you're supposed to say, the crowd really wants you to go.
And I'm like, Joe, I don't want to bump anybody.
No, you wouldn't be bumping anybody.
We'll just cut Tony's time down.
Joe, I don't want to be that guy.
You're like, don't be ridiculous.
Oh, I have to dance with you.
Go on.
I didn't know you wanted to dance.
You want to dance tonight?
No, I got to leave.
I'm going to Seattle tonight.
What the fuck?
I got to go.
I would love to, yeah.
Are you performing tonight in Seattle?
No, no.
Maybe I can change my flight.
Well, let's see.
Maybe I can change it.
Move it around.
There's plenty of flights out of Austin.
It's a wonderful hub.
It is.
It's great.
It keeps booming every time I was here.
The last time I said it was COVID.
Yeah, I don't think it's going to get too much bigger.
I think we've reached peak.
You think so?
Yeah, yeah, I think it's about it.
You think Shane Gillis was the last citizen they allowed in?
No, there's a few more coming.
Joe DeRosa just got a place here.
He did?
Yeah, and Joey Diaz is getting a place here.
I can't believe the two Joe Ds are going to be here.
Let's go.
That's great.
Joe Diaz and Joe DeRosa is a fierce combination.
I know, but I spoke to Joe DeRosa yesterday.
I deliberately didn't go to the chicken place because of Joe DeRosa.
Really?
Why?
Because when he recommended it, it just bugged me.
His confidence when he goes, you've got to try this chicken place.
And I was like, ah.
It's Gus's fried chicken.
I know.
And it's phenomenal.
I just don't like that Joe has positioned himself as the new gastronomic expert
in comedy.
Right, because he owns a sub shop.
Yeah.
By the way, it's a good sub shop, though.
I heard it's amazing.
It's fucking great.
I'm embarrassed that I've ever been there.
It's fucking great.
He brought some over when they were doing Moon Tower.
He was in town.
He brought some subs over.
They were fucking tremendous.
He's got a great place.
Yeah.
I always look at the Instagram photos.
I'm like, oh my God, that looks so good.
They said the bread's amazing.
Everything's amazing.
The food's amazing.
He makes a great sub.
He's obviously, it's a labor of love.
Yeah.
You know, he's a professional comic.
It's a side thing.
Yeah.
He's like, I like sandwiches.
Let's make a sandwich shop.
And he knocked it out of the park.
Everybody who goes are big subs.
Yeah.
Not expensive.
The name Joey Roses is good.
Yeah, it's great.
It's great.
It's anger producing in some ways.
In a lot of ways for you.
You have a thing with him, I think.
With Joe?
Yeah.
I try to have a thing with everybody.
That's my thing, Joe.
I like to have a thing.
If you had studied straight karate and wanted to MMA, maybe I could have a
thing with you.
But let's face it, you don't play games.
I do play games.
You're not to be taken lightly.
No, I don't.
But what about, yeah, before I came down here, because in New York, it's so
funny.
In the green room last night, all I want to do is bust balls with everybody.
Yeah.
Like, that's what I live for.
It's fun.
You know?
And when you see Shane Gillis in there, Shane Gillis is just that guy.
He's so big.
I just want you to lock him in a basement and just feed him like red meat and
make him train
MMA for like two years and just eat mescaline and red meat and just become a
stone-cold killer.
Wow.
That's my dream.
I've got him working out.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah.
He looked sore yesterday.
He said he really looked out.
We did two hard days this week.
Well, look how big he is.
He's a big fuck.
Yeah.
Big old football player kid.
If I was as big as him, I wouldn't be a comic.
No?
I'd be an animal.
I'd be working security at the club telling people, shut up.
Tony's trying to do something up there.
Comedy's like, it's got an anger to it, don't you think?
A little bit.
Yeah.
It's got to.
Well, there's just so much resistance.
It's so difficult to get through.
Yeah.
There's a lot of fucking running up that river.
Yeah.
What about, yeah, even the way, even the way we talk to each other.
Like, I'm at the cellar the other night, so here's what happened.
So I'm just sitting there.
Keith is there.
Norton's there.
So I just give the waitress.
First of all, I'm like the Sinatra of tipping.
I didn't want to bring this up, but now I'm bringing it up because this is part
of the story.
So I tip them, but I always put it there because I'm trying not to flash how
much I tip.
Right.
So I'm trying to do it like that.
So Norton goes, ugh, you're tipping.
You're not part of the rat pack.
They just start trashing me for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, what I should have said was, I'm only doing that so you cheap
bastards don't
look bad.
You know?
I understand.
Yeah.
This is a daily thing.
I enjoy tipping myself.
Yeah.
I could see you're a high roller, too.
It's like a little love bomb.
Give a little love bomb to people.
Yes.
An extra few dollars and it makes their whole day.
Yeah.
You don't even feel it.
It makes people happy.
Yeah.
I always try to tell my cheap friends.
I'm like, you got to get over that.
Yeah.
Fuck that 15%.
What are you doing?
I agree.
Give them a big tip.
A lot of chiselers.
Yeah.
Don't be a chiseler.
And they think of excuses.
Yeah.
Like, oh, you see that attitude you gave me?
Yeah.
I give people big tips and they give me shitty service.
I just want everybody to be happy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You can give them a little happiness and maybe they'll be nicer to the next
people.
And you see the butterfly effect.
Well, it's certainly not working for the planet right now.
Let's face it.
Eh, we're all right.
I think the problem is we're inundated with bad news constantly.
Yeah.
That's the real problem.
And then, you know, there's also like the problems in cities.
Yeah.
Well, everywhere.
I mean, you know, I just did a special, by the way, about it's releasing
tomorrow.
It's about, I did it in front of a psychiatrist's convention.
Did you really?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
I just did it.
And so I found, I sought out a psychiatrist's convention and went there and
said, hey, would
you guys let me go on and just do my, shoot my special in front of you?
And they said, sure.
So I did a whole thing.
Then they analyzed me afterwards and it was funny.
What room was it at?
It was a ballroom, like one of those, you know, it was like a Washington, D.C.,
some hotel
off the beaten path where they were just having a convention.
And they did not plan on you being there?
No.
And so you knew they were going to be there at that time.
Yeah.
And you coordinated with them, set up cameras, the whole deal.
Yeah.
Did you inform them before, like the psychiatrist beforehand, they were going
to be a part of
a comedy special?
Well, they were, they were welcome to come to the show or not.
But yeah, we told them before, you know, if you come, you might be on film.
But yeah, they didn't have to show up.
Obviously, half of them probably showed up.
But it was, it was, it was interesting.
That's a great idea.
Yeah.
I thought it was, because it's about the world, how we're having a psychotic
break.
We're talking about the planet.
So it was kind of fun for me, because, you know, it was interesting for that
angle, you
know, the whole special is built around it.
It's so much more discussed.
The bad news is so much more discussed.
People's problems are so much more discussed.
Having problems is so much more a thing that people love to talk about now.
It makes you more interesting.
It gives you something to talk about.
And it's just so pervasive.
And I think social media has just broken people's brains.
Social media started as a fun aunt's kitchen, where everybody was being
positive and saying
like, hey, you know, dance between the raindrops.
And then suddenly somebody was like, shut up, bitch, you fat bitch.
Fuck you and the raindrops.
And it just unleashed all of us.
That's what I say.
It's like it unleashed that part of people.
And here's the other thing, which I think you'll be interested in.
It's the first time in history you can threaten people and curse them out and
not have to run
or have a physical confrontation.
So fight or flight instinct is going to be eliminated from our genetics in two
generations.
Yeah.
Not just that, but also you don't feel bad.
Like if you say something shitty to someone, you see the look on their face,
even if you
feel like you should have done it.
When you're alone at night, you might be like, I didn't have to do that.
Right.
Why did I do that?
What a fucking asshole I am.
I got to apologize.
Right.
And then you'll see him the next day like, I was out of line.
I'm sorry.
I was dealing with a lot of shit.
You know, my mom, my sister, my this, my that.
Sorry.
I'm sorry.
But there's none of that.
No.
And you don't even know these people too.
You don't have to say, you can't.
Just say the most evil, mean shit, vicious shit.
Look through their pictures.
Look at you.
You fat fuck.
And you're fucking toothless smile.
And they used to have, they used to have gossip magazines.
Like if celebrities in the 1950s, that's when they started to realize people
love to read
bad scandalous stuff.
But now you get to respond.
You're like the writer and the reader of the gossip magazine.
You know what I do enjoy though?
When people don't understand how it works and they'll post something and just
get smashed
in the comments and then they'll start going back and forth with people in the
comments.
Like, what are you doing?
Yeah.
What are you doing?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Well, what about, well, one of the biggest problems is people, this is one of
many of them,
trying to be funny that they, they've never had to, they, they've always
thought they
were kind of funny and then they go in and try to be funny and they get away
with a couple
because they have two people that go, Hey, that was good.
They start to think I'm funny.
And then they get in there and people just start destroying them for trying to
be funny
because they're not used to the heckling that we're used to.
Right.
We got trained out of all our hack habits.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Comedy trains you.
The audience trains you.
Mm-hmm.
And being around.
By not laughing.
And being around other comics.
Other comics are like, what the fuck was that joke?
It regulates you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It does.
It does.
Yeah, you get feedback.
Yeah.
Feedback's important.
Positive and negative.
It's a whole other level.
Yeah.
Who gets more feedback
